    Real democracy is when you get to choose a new capitalist pedophile every 4 years!

        Yeah, I’m sure all those liberated slaves would agree with you.

          Most people desire more liberation than merely not being a slave. This is a very unserious reply.

            The government and revolution are both immensely popular among Cubans.

            The government monitors and represses subversive activities, but so does every other state.

            Union participation is nearly universal, and laws are passed by a national popular assembly.

            The Family Code was recently revised, through a process of nationwide contribution and referendum, which serves as an example of functional democracy.

            All was achieved despite constant colonial bombardment by the US. Cubans correctly identify as their enemy the US government, not the government of Cuba.

      Hilarious that you immediately jump to “America bad” with absolutely no indication of where the poster is from.

      Yes, America bad, but that’s a huge whataboutism

        My response had nothing to do with America specifically. Westoids again convincing themselves that only America is guilty of this fake democracy pedo-grift 🤣
